    @syrabane: there are a great many magic based builds here in the blog... check out the archive. Alteenatively, since you mentioned stealth and magic, you can check out my night weaver, and see if it fits: https://www.tamrielvault.com/groups/topic/view/page/1/group_id/3/topic_id/3352

    I recently played through the game as a good-aligned Redguard Scout, and I've been trying to come up with a completely different build with which to experience the things in the game he didn't - namely the Volkihar, Dark Brotherhood, Thieves Guild, and College of Winterhold questlines. I'm looking for something fairly RP-heavy while still being fun and straightforward. I'd especially enjoy something that revolves around playing a female character, since I rarely play them in any extended playthroughs.

    Gameplay-wise, the character should be suited to the aforementioned questlines (or at least have a decent RP reason to do them) - maybe some sort of stealthy mage? I'm pretty open to any playstyle that doesn't involve more juggling menus than actual gameplay. I'd like to avoid crafting skills, archery, dual wielding, and swords. Builds that revolve around using glitches are out as well. Any suggestions?

    Hey! Sorry to be a bother. I came across this build a little while ago that I loved. I saved it but now I cant seem to find it. I was wondering if you were able to maybe help pinpoint this and maybe direct me somewhere or if you know the build tell me the name. Basically the build consisted of: Elven Race (I believe Altmer, but not entirely sure), Used 100% spell absorption glitch, screenshots showed character wearing Blue Dunmer outfit while battling a dragon, used bound swords and I think bound bow, Fireball, flesh spells, Unarmoured, and had a video clip at the end of the build. Sorry for the hassle, but I appreciate any and all help! Thank you!! -Luke:)

    Found it! That would be The Sapiarch by Teccam.

    After wracking my brains for a bit I think the Daughter of Coldharbour by Noodles is probably the most similar to this, or the Sisters of Order by Bryn, two very roguey female builds who I think join every guild you mentioned.

    The Treasure Hunter by beancounter is Indiana Jones brought to life in Skyrim, so this should be perfect.

    Sorry Motty, somehow your build escaped my memory! It looks great by the way, love a little bit of Indy in Skyrim.

    Hallo, all! I am looking for a stealth/adventurer/thief/mage build. I don't want to be very combat heavy.I would like to use spells as a utility to go somewhere stealthly get/kill what/who i want and get out without alerting a lot of people. The focus should be at stealth and spells. Thank you all very much!
